Just a quick question... I have a couple .prc palm files which I downloaded and saved to the MyPDA directory. Now I want to hot sync and have these files downloaded from Linux Mint to my Palm. I know that gnome-pilot has a "File" conduit which I have set to "Enabled." The "Backup" conduit is set to "Enabled" and "Backup only changed databases" is checked. After hot syncing, the new .prc files do not get downloaded to the Palm. Do I have them in the wrong directory? Thanks for your help.

Right-click on a file you want to put on your palm (a .PRC or .PDB) and select Open With Other Application... Click the arrow to expand and select Open With Other Application, Custom Command, and type: “gpilot-install-file --later” or leave off the “--later” to sync immediately. Click OK. Now, whenever you double-click on a prc, it'll be set to install on the next hotsync.

You can get the visual confirmation of having installed the files by checking the log file on the PDA after the hot-sync.
